00:00:00,100 --> 00:00:03,521
- Hate the sin, love the sinner, baby. Roccat is sponsoring this video

2
00:00:03,521 --> 00:00:07,710
to feature their Syn Pro Air wireless gaming headset.

3
00:00:07,710 --> 00:00:12,232
It's supposed to be super lightweight and super immersive. So, let's check it out.

4
00:00:12,232 --> 00:00:15,610
This is very phallic. It's the mic boom.

5
00:00:15,610 --> 00:00:19,710
Cool, it looks like it plugs in, it looks like a rotates. Branding on the side, there it is.

6
00:00:19,710 --> 00:00:23,130
The dongle also branded. That means it's not Bluetooth.

7
00:00:23,130 --> 00:00:29,410
It uses 2.4 gigahertz, stellar Wi-Fi technology for our consistent connection that is constantly monitored.

8
00:00:29,410 --> 00:00:33,257
This is a USBC to USBA adapter.

9
00:00:33,257 --> 00:00:37,320
Take that Apple! The cable for charging, if and when you have to charge,

10
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:41,270
they are advertising a 24 hour battery life which, if you game for three hours a day,

11
00:00:41,270 --> 00:00:46,793
is like a week of use, which is pretty nice. And, if you do have to charge, 15 minutes of charging

12
00:00:46,793 --> 00:00:51,070
will get you five hours of play time. And, you get to charge with this big long cable.

13
00:00:51,070 --> 00:00:55,720
They are quite lightweight, which is what they are saying they are.

14
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,050
That's cool. Three Hundo, 300 grams. That's pretty light.

15
00:00:59,050 --> 00:01:05,255
They have like a kind of athletic look almost because they have this meshy kind of wicking material that is consistent

16
00:01:05,255 --> 00:01:11,516
on the headphones and on the headband. And I can see that these are the live flat kind of rotating

17
00:01:11,516 --> 00:01:14,710
ear cups that can just contour to your body,

18
00:01:14,710 --> 00:01:18,776
which is nice. Instead of them always being like this. Which can feel a little, a little claustrophobic.

19
00:01:18,776 --> 00:01:22,610
You know, a little smothering. So, it's nice to put those down.

20
00:01:22,610 --> 00:01:26,320
Volume control. It is ratchet. It's going boop, boop, boop, boop,

21
00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:30,750
as they spin it. Doesn't click because it's not a mouse. Power on and off.

22
00:01:30,750 --> 00:01:36,502
An LED indicator light. Your charging port. Oh, another, another knob, variable mic monitoring.

23
00:01:36,502 --> 00:01:39,909
Okay. The microphone picture was only on the sticker itself.

24
00:01:39,909 --> 00:01:42,930
It's a cap. That's why it had a picture of a mic on it.

25
00:01:42,930 --> 00:01:47,943
It's where you plug the mic in. (off-camera laugh) Okay, cool. So, it looks like it's flexible.

26
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:55,150
Hold on. Oh, I found out what this button is. It literally is monitoring.

27
00:01:55,150 --> 00:02:00,910
It's feeding my audio back into my own ears now. Nice! And then I can turn that down

28
00:02:00,910 --> 00:02:05,058
to now, it's nothing. Now I just feel isolated. Like I'm wearing headphones. I can just.

29
00:02:05,058 --> 00:02:09,508
(narrator sings) ♪ That's so good! I can practice my singing. ♪

30
00:02:09,508 --> 00:02:14,380
- Yeah. So this will mute if you flip it up, it actually gives you an auditory feedback when you flip it

31
00:02:14,380 --> 00:02:18,540
up. Biboop, boobip. Happy and sad noises.

32
00:02:18,540 --> 00:02:22,070
Boom. And then it's smooth. Boop, and boop.

33
00:02:22,070 --> 00:02:25,317
And it actually mutes at this level. You don't have to go all the way up, ah,

34
00:02:25,317 --> 00:02:28,652
monitoring yourself as really great. You can, you can hear the plosives,

35
00:02:28,652 --> 00:02:32,551
like, all the annoying things that other people do. You'll know when you're doing them.

36
00:02:32,551 --> 00:02:35,730
Got to mention the RGV. You can configure this in software.

37
00:02:35,730 --> 00:02:41,459
We're gonna do that in a minute. But out of the box, you can see that it is glowing through the plastic and it is

38
00:02:41,459 --> 00:02:45,210
cycling colors in a breathing kind of manner.

39
00:02:45,210 --> 00:02:49,340
So on top of the rotation, you also get a little bit of kind of tilt on the ear pads.

40
00:02:49,340 --> 00:02:54,340
That really goes a long way into making these fit on every head. The caliper pressure this way,

41
00:02:54,340 --> 00:02:59,865
I would say, is not very tight. I have a kind of medium to small head.

42
00:02:59,865 --> 00:03:05,280
I don't have a melon, but I think that this would probably work for melons because

43
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,540
it's not as clamping as a lot of headphones are

44
00:03:08,540 --> 00:03:12,910
out-of-the-box. You can adjust this much.

45
00:03:12,910 --> 00:03:18,013
There you go. That's how big your head could be. Cool, and this is the headband padding.

46
00:03:20,300 --> 00:03:22,163
And, here's the ear cup padding.

47
00:03:24,288 --> 00:03:27,970
And, the ear cups have pro spec cushion technology so that

48
00:03:27,970 --> 00:03:32,683
you can wear them with your glasses comfortably. Sometimes you can see or feel that in an ear cup.

49
00:03:32,683 --> 00:03:36,600
Like, you'll feel like there's a little divot there where your ARM or your glasses goes.

50
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,700
I don't really detect that. There's nothing visual,

51
00:03:39,700 --> 00:03:44,684
but that's what they say. I have other headphones where I put them on top like that, but it makes like the angle of glasses, like just stupid,

52
00:03:44,684 --> 00:03:48,670
but this, you could go, you do whatever you want. For these guys are equipped with

53
00:03:48,670 --> 00:03:55,680
50 millimeter drivers inside the ear cups. And they are advertising immersive 3D sound. So,

54
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,586
it's beyond 7.1 audio by offering dimensions in the

55
00:03:59,586 --> 00:04:05,530
height and below you kind of planes so that you should be able to hear people all around you for playing Fortnite and

56
00:04:05,530 --> 00:04:08,620
you're building giant structures and all the little puny

57
00:04:08,620 --> 00:04:12,730
competitors are down below you. That should be nicely represented in these headphones.

58
00:04:12,730 --> 00:04:17,060
And, they also have this thing called super human hearing,

59
00:04:17,060 --> 00:04:20,710
which is them boosting sounds that they think would give you

60
00:04:20,710 --> 00:04:25,381
a competitive advantage. So, let's say a footstep has a particular frequency range

61
00:04:25,381 --> 00:04:30,870
that's common to most games. They will boost that so that it's easier to hear things that

62
00:04:30,870 --> 00:04:34,078
are relevant to you, like footsteps. So, you can get all the kills!

63
00:04:34,078 --> 00:04:38,560
(laughs menacingly) Okay, battery status hundred percent, nice.

64
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,730
Superhuman hearing was deactivated by default.

65
00:04:42,730 --> 00:04:46,870
Uh, I'm going to activate it. Oh, you can adjust how aggressive it is too.

66
00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:51,210
Let's put it right in the middle. 3D, 3D audio deactivated, let's activate it.

67
00:04:51,210 --> 00:04:54,780
Game spatializer. I like how everything's off by default, that's cool.

68
00:04:54,780 --> 00:04:57,793
Channel mix, balanced. What? Oh, this is the,

69
00:04:57,793 --> 00:05:00,936
this is the difference between game and chat volume.

70
00:05:00,936 --> 00:05:05,953
And that's in the middle right now by default, cool. You got a master volume and your mic volume are independent.

71
00:05:05,953 --> 00:05:11,943
And the, on the illumination tab, you can mess with the color value as well as the saturation

72
00:05:11,943 --> 00:05:15,712
of it. And it connects to AIMO, the RGB ecosystem

73
00:05:15,712 --> 00:05:22,960
if you have anything there. There's also the option to turn the color we have effect on

74
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:27,760
and off. Very cool. And then, finally, there's the EQ tab. Equalizer on.

75
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,137
There's like a dozen different frequencies you can hit here. Yeah, that's pretty good.

76
00:05:31,137 --> 00:05:33,737
- Oh, there's some, there's some Charlies over here.

77
00:05:37,490 --> 00:05:39,633
Oh man. All the footsteps I can hear.

78
00:05:41,790 --> 00:05:46,763
Oh, how much damage did I get you for though, with those crisp sounding shots?

79
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,988
Oh, he just deagled me. Alright, I've heard enough.

80
00:05:52,988 --> 00:05:57,350
- And hopefully you have to, these are Roccat Syn wireless headphones,

81
00:05:57,350 --> 00:06:00,153
about 150 bucks. Check them out at the link below.
